Saint Patrick: The Man Behind The Myth

Saint Patrick: The Man Behind The Myth

Date: SUN PM 17th March 2024 Preacher: Rev. David McLaughlin Bible Reference: Isaiah 38:19 The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth. Will the real Saint Patrick of history please stand up and make yourself known? Today I want to present the true story of Patrick: The true story is more interesting/ exciting than the stuff of myths and legends. Today there is loads of stuff about the popular Patrick parroted by the Irish Government, the Irish Tourist Board, and the Roman Catholic Church, but long before the stuff of myths and legends rose up and gained traction, there was the real true story of the Patrick of history. Let’s ask some questions: Who was Patrick ? What sort of man was he ? What did he really do in Ireland ? Why is he so important to Irish Christianity ? I believe that Patrick was a sinner saved by the grace of God, whom God later called and sent on a mission with a message; to convert the pagan Irish of the 5th Century – it’s the same Gospel message needed for today, Christ is the Answer. In the video below, I set forth Patrick, the man, the myth, and the message. Rev. David McLaughlin Minister of Carryduff FPC
